Dev requirements for learn.wordpress.org

As per this post on the Community P2, we are going to be using learn.wordpress.org to host the workshops that will be made available to the community.

The Training team has been working on a new site design, which is on a demo server here: http://wayback.fauppsala.se:80/wayback/20200730144243/https://learnwp.jco.dev/ with the code available on GitHub. We have tacit confirmation from @chetan200891 to collaborate with the Training team on making this site a hub for WordPress learning – including the excellent lesson plans that they have been working on, and these new workshops along with planning for synchronous discussion groups around the content.

The next step here is to finish the work on the learn site (which already looks fantastic) so that it meets the requirements that we need. This includes:

  • A new CPT and taxonomy for workshops (I don’t think a full-featured LMS is necessary at this stage, but we may want to consider thsat for the future)
  • Frontend layouts for the new and existing CPTs
  • An additional call to action on the home page that directs people to the workshop content
  • A link to an external scheduling platform for discussion groups

Please discuss any further dev requirements in comments on this post.

I’m very excited about this platform and the collaboration between Community and Training on the work here!

/cc +make.wordpress.org/training/ +make.wordpress.org/community/ +make.wordpress.org/design/ (since we’ll need design work done on this too)

That’s great to hear. Building on the existing theme work seems like the ideal way to get this done efficiently. I wonder if the meeting calendar plugin might also be of some use.

Oh that could be very handy – we could use that for the discussion group times and then link out to the sign-up form for each one.

For some reason the community x-post above didn’t work, so trying again: +make.wordpress.org/community/

This is great! The design team is looking forward to it. Let us know via our Trello board when you are ready to talk about the design.
